In my experience it is not that GP have a higher peroxidase level, it is frozen 
sections in general that cannot be blocked with h202, unless they are fixed for 
a long time in formalin.  What are others experiences with h202 blocking on 
frozen sections.  I always used an IHC detection system that did not require 
h202 blocking for frozen sections.

Subject: [Histonet] guinea pig IHC

Has anyone ever performed IHC on frozen sections of guinea pig tissue?  I
am experiencing an enormous amount of bubbling when doing the peroxidase
blocking step, even though I'm only using a 0.3% concentration of H2O2.
And when I say 'enormous', I mean it's like continuous champagne bubbles
rising out of the tissue, even after 20 minutes in the H2O2 solution.

I can't find anything in the literature that mentions guinea pigs having a
higher peroxidase content in their tissues.

Thanks for any help that anyone can provide.

Haven't seen any cytology listservs except the one for members of the ASC.  
There are some cytology facebook pages where you could get questions answered. 
This Histonet listserv is very informative.

[Histonet] cytology listserv

2019-02-01 Thread Nancy Schmitt via Histonet
Hello-

I know many of us have overlap between histology/cytology/cytology prep.

Wondering if there is a helpful listserv available like this - or is my best 
chance to bring my questions here?

Thanks

We are not allowed to store anything under our sinks, the Compliance department 
has told us that it is an OSHA requirement.

Cleaning supplies may be stored under the sink, but since "things" have a way 
of migrating there as well, we just have a blanket rule, nothing under the 
sink.  Of course, this would never occur in the Histology Department, LOL. The 
space is actually locked off.

Hello Histonetters!
Has anyone heard of a regulation by CAP, CLIA or OSHA regarding commercial 
bleach stored under the laboratory sink.  My lab routinely has a gallon 
container of dated/ bio-labeled commercial bleach stored under the sink for 
cleaning purposes. Daily use to clean special stain coplin jars,etc..  I had a 
suspicious med tech tell my pathologist that is was against regulations to have 
it in the lab anytime !
HUH
Responses welcomed.
Have an awesome Thursday!
